This book is testimony to the degree of advancement in the research and development of sensors in Italy. It covers the typical areas of sensors and microsystems, such as chemical and biological sensors, physical sensors, optical sensors and micromechanics.As in previous proceedings of the Italian Conference on Sensors and Microsystems, a section of this book is devoted to advanced sensor applications. The book focuses on the development of sensors for the human body, and the relationship between human bodies and sensor systems.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the Fourth Italian Conference on Sensors and Microsystems, held in Rome in 1999. Topics addressed include chemical sensors in organic and in inorganic materials, ChemFET, arrays of non-selective sensors, and fibre optics sensors.

This book offers a unique view on the research activities (industrial and academic) carried out in Italy in the fields of chemical and physical sensors, biosensors, and microsystems. It contains about 80 papers on all fields of sensors and microsystems.The 5th Italian Conference on Sensors and Microsystems was held in Lecce, Italy. This location opened the conference to mediterranean countries, particularly the Middle East.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:• Materials Science Citation Index®• Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)• CC Proceedings — Engineering & Physical Sciences

This volume presents current research and development in the fields of sensors and microsystems. Many aspects of disciplines related to sensors and microsystems are covered, ranging from materials science to complete applications and multifunctional systems. The variety of the topics and the quality of the papers offer readers an insight into the research status in Italy. The book contains selected contributions from 37 institutions in Italy — both academic institutions and public/private research institutions.

This work covers topics such as actuators, micromachined structures, chemical sensors, and humidity sensors.

This indispensable volume contains a selection of papers presented at the 9th Italian Conference on Sensors and Microsystems, organized by AISEM (Associazione Italiana Sensori e Microsistemi). Many essential aspects of the disciplines related to advanced sensors and microsystems are covered, ranging from nano- and new materials to applications, multifunctional systems, micromechanics, and new technology. 83 papers from 103 institutions are featured, an indication of the very active research currently progressing in Italy. The wide range of contributions reflects the multidisciplinary character of the community encompassing physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, medicine, and others.
